PP Board Member Works in Houston District Attorney's Office Investigating Planned Parenthood

By Cheryl SullengerOperation Rescue
Houston, TX - It has been learned that a prosecutor in the Harris County District Attorney's office that is currently investigating a Houston Planned Parenthood abortion clinic for selling aborted baby parts, serves on the Board of Directors for Planned Parenthood.

Lauren Reeder is a prosecutor in the Harris County District Attorney's criminal family law division. She apparently notified District Attorney Devon Anderson of her role with Planned Parenthood last week.

Reeder is listed as a non-compensated "Director" on the 990 Tax Form for 2014filed by Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast.

Last week, Operation Rescue called on Anderson to appoint a special prosecutor to oversee the criminal investigation into Planned Parenthood.

"Today, we renew our call to Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick and District Attorney Devon Anderson to appoint an independent special prosecutor to investigate Planned Parenthood," said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman, who also serves on the Board of the Center for Medical Progress, which released videotaped evidence against Planned Parenthood.
